Josh Anderson of the Montreal Canadiens reflects on a challenging previous season, admitting he underperformed with just nine goals. However, he has reinvented himself this season, becoming a vital player on a struggling team, contributing both offensively and defensively.

Anderson's leadership is evident, especially after a confrontation with New York Rangers' Jacob Trouba, where he appreciated Trouba's willingness to settle their on-ice issues directly. His coach, Martin St. Louis, praises Anderson's commitment and leadership qualities, emphasizing the importance of having players fully engaged as the team aims to improve.
